Experts: AI can generate 'billions' for you, but requires the long-term view

Some smart companies are already making billions of dollars from their investments in AI, but these companies are taking the long-term view to achieve that. And the longer view companies take when working on AI, the more likely AI will exceed their expectations. These are some of the conclusions that emerged from leading executives at VB Summit last week, which focused on how AI is accelerating business results. Leaders from Microsoft, Facebook, IBM, and Intel joined a "Titans in AI" panel at the end of the Summit, and elaborated on some of these findings. Another key finding from the event is that personnel decisions are critical.
